The half-life of a radioactive substance is the time it takes for a quantity of the substance to decay to half of the initial am
posledela

Step-by-step walkthrough:

a.

Well a standard half-life equation looks like this.

N = N_0 * (\frac{1}{2})^{t/p

N_0 is the starting amount of parent element.

N is the end amount of parent element

t is the time elapsed

p is a half-life decay period

We know that the starting amount is 74g, and the period for a half-life is 2.8 days.

Therefore you can create a function based off of the original equation, just sub in the values you already know.

N(t) = 74g * (\frac{1}{2})^{t/2.8days

b.

This is easy now that we have already made the function. Here we just reuse it, but plug in 2.8 days.

N(t) = 74g * (\frac{1}{2})^{t/2.8days} = N(2.8days) = 74g * (\frac{1}{2})^{2.8days/2.8days}\\= 74g * \frac{1}{2}  =  37g

c.

Now we just gotta do some algebra. Use the original function but this time, replace N(t) with 10g and solve algebraically.

10g = 74g * (\frac{1}{2})^{t/2.8days}\\\\\frac{10g}{74g} = (\frac{1}{2})^{t/2.8days}

Take the log of both sides.

log(\frac{5}{37}) = log((\frac{1}{2})^{t/2.8days})

Use the exponent rule for log laws that, log(b^x) = x*log(b)

log(\frac{5}{37}) = \frac{t}{2.8days} * log(\frac{1}{2})

\frac{log(\frac{5}{37})}{log(\frac{1}{2})}  = \frac{t}{2.8days}

2.8 * \frac{log(\frac{5}{37})}{log(\frac{1}{2})}  = t

slap that in your calculator and you get

t = 8.1 days

Your teacher is choosing 2 students to run an errand for her. There are 12 girls and 10 boys in the class. What is the probabili
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

2/7

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 22 (12 + 10) total students in the class. That means that the chance of the first student picked being a girl is 12/22.

Now, we must calculate the chance of the next student to be picked <em>also </em>being a girl - however, there is a trap here! Remember that since a girl has been picked, the total student pool has decreased to 21 and and the total number of girls has decreased to 11. This means the new chance of girl being picked is 11/21.

To find the probability of both these events happening in conjunction, these fractions must be multiplied. 12/22 * 11/21 = 132/462, which simplifies to 2/7.
